The network members aim to co-create solutions supporting the digital transformation in the Nordic and Baltic bioeconomy. By doing so, the network will increase the general awareness of the role of testbeds and digitalisation in the development of the Nordic and Baltic bioeconomy and also facilitate knowledge and technology transfer between the Nordic and Baltic countries.
The Nordic Testbed Network is managed by Nordic Forest Research (SNS), Nordic Agri Research (NKJ) and the Nordic Council of Ministers’ working group on fisheries, and is aligned with initiatives such as the North Digital Declaration and the Nordic Bioeconomy Program.
Digitalisation plays a vital role in the rapid development of the Nordic bioeconomy. Access to cutting edge platforms for development, so-called testbeds, where new digital knowledge and technology can be developed is fundamental. To meet this need, and to support the digital transformation of the Nordic bioeconomy, the Nordic Testbed Network was initiated.
